Introduction: Biodiversity and biodiversity-based ecosystems services are intrinsically
dependent on the climate. During the twentieth century, climate change has posed major …

Invasive species cause ecological, economic and social impacts and are key drivers of
global change. This is the case for the genus Prosopis (mesquite; Fabaceae) where several …

Dense impenetrable thickets of invasive trees and shrubs compete with other water users
and thus disrupt ecosystem functioning and services. This study assessed water use by the …

We coordinated biogeographical comparisons of the impacts of an exotic invasive tree in its
native and non-native ranges with a congeneric comparison in the non-native range …

In recent years, an increasing number of distribution maps of invasive alien plant species
(IAPS) have been published using different machine learning algorithms (MLAs). However …

Endophytes and rhizospheric microorganisms support invasive species' adaptation to
environmental stresses. Here, we review the impacts of endophytes, rhizospheric microbes …

A relatively small subset of exotic plant species competitively exclude their neighbors in
invaded “recipient” communities but coexist with neighbors in their native habitat …

The introduction of fast-growing plant species has been a strategy worldwide to combat
problems arising from land degradation. Prosopis juliflora is an ecosystem engineer that …

Among the invasive species of plants which are spreading at an alarming rate in the tropical
and sub-tropical regions of the world, Prosopis (Prosopis juliflora) is arguably the most hardy …

Restoration of marginal and degraded lands is essential for regaining biodiversity and
ecosystems services, and thereby attaining UN-Sustainable Development Goals. During the …
